Bird Box: Netflix issues WARNING over ‘challenge’ - ‘Do not end up in hospital’

NETFLIX has issued a warning to subscribers as a so-called ‘Bird Box Challenge’ gathers momentum.

The trend, which is one of the many memes to arise from the Sandra Bullock-fronted thriller, sees participants performing everyday tasks blindfolded - much like Bullock does in the film. While there have not yet been any reports of people seriously harming themselves whilst performing the challenge, Netflix has spoken out on social media to warn fans to exercise caution. The message has had almost 200,000 Likes since being posted last night.

Can’t believe I have to say this, but: PLEASE DO NOT HURT YOURSELVES WITH THIS BIRD BOX CHALLENGE. We don’t know how this started, and we appreciate the love, but Boy and Girl have just one wish for 2019 and it is that you not end up in the hospital due to memes.
